My domineering ex-husband is living off his wife in ancient times.

Chapter 123 It's either her or me.

But as soon as she finished crying out that sentence, Cheng Ruoan suddenly stopped crying and froze.

She knew Lin Shishi wasn't a good person, but Si Shaoheng didn't!

Moreover, in modern times, although she was the one who initiated the divorce, didn't Si Shaoheng agree to it quite readily?

Lin Shishi might have transmigrated here. This was a nightmare for her, but it might not be for Si Shaoheng!

Cheng Ruoan started trembling again.

Scared.

She was hasty...

Si Shaoheng sensed her unusual behavior and released her, asking, "What's wrong?"

Cheng Ruoan met his gaze, her eyes timid and wary, which left Si Shaoheng momentarily stunned.

But he quickly realized, "You're not thinking nonsense, are you? I would choose Lin Shishi over you, would I?!"

Cheng Ruoan remained silent, biting her lip tightly, but her body was subtly distancing itself from him.

Si Shaoheng: ...

outrageous.

She was still half-embraced by him, but she insisted on gradually distancing herself from him, truly unafraid of developing a double chin.

Si Shaoheng sighed helplessly, his eyes blinking as he opened and closed them, holding the gun from his spatial storage.

The moment Cheng Ruoan saw the gun, she was terrified.

Before she could even scream, Si Shaoheng had already shoved the gun, with the safety off, into her hand.

He grabbed her hand and pointed the gun at his heart.

Then, with an unprecedented seriousness on his face, he said in a deep voice, "I can roughly guess what's going on in your head."

But the misunderstanding has already been formed, and my attempt to explain myself would only sound like sophistry.

Next, you ask questions, I answer, but if you think I'm lying, you shoot.

Aim for my heart and shoot.

He knew she lacked a sense of security, which is common in modern society.

She may seem carefree, cowardly, and stupid, but that's just a protective facade she uses to avoid trusting anyone.

If we were to go to ancient times now, it would probably be even worse.

But he couldn't lay his whole heart out to her and tell her that he was someone she could trust.

That's the only way.

Cheng Ruoan's hand holding the gun trembled violently, but the firmness and composure in her superior Shao Heng's deep eyes gradually calmed her down.

Cheng Ruoan took a deep breath and said seriously, "You gave me the right to take a gun, so I should be more righteous."

"Let me be frank with you, in a modern society governed by the rule of law, I can't do anything to Lin Shishi. But if she, like us, has transmigrated to this fictional dynasty, then we're destined to be enemies to the death—it's either her or me. Do you understand what I mean?"

Si Shaoheng: ...

That means she has to die!

He said seriously, "We share the same thoughts."

I had thought about this before: what would we do if someone found out we were time travelers?

How should I deal with this?

"Those like Shaoyang, Dahua, and Silang, whose interests align with ours and whom we can control, can be spared. The rest, kill them."

Cheng Ruoan still frowned: "What if Lin Shishi's interests align with yours, and you can control her?"

Si Shaoheng slightly raised his eyes, looking at her with a mixture of helplessness and speechlessness: "Based on what has happened in modern times, it is impossible for our interests to align."

Cheng Ruoan scoffed, "She is the real daughter of the Li family, someone who has a marriage alliance with your Si family. Your interests are not aligned, so what kind of marriage alliance is this?"

Do you really think she's a naive and easily fooled person?

What should I do? I'm starting to feel like pulling the trigger.

Si Shaoheng: ...

It turns out that people can actually laugh for no reason when they're speechless.

"If that's the case, then it's not me who's going to marry the Li family's daughter."

You were forced into marriage by the Li family, but it was I who wanted to marry you.

Cheng Ruoan scoffed, "Sophistry. You, the eldest son of the Si family, could have any woman you wanted."

"If I hadn't been Li Ruoan back then, how much of a proactive stance would you have had?"

Si Shaoheng hissed, almost laughing in exasperation, "How come I never realized you could be so irritating before?"

"One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black; it's all thanks to your teaching, Mr. Si."

After the Li family reunited with Lin Shishi, they asked me to return all of Lin Shishi's belongings to her, including her marriage to you.

"If you really didn't intend to change wives, would you have spent over half an hour doing 'that' with Lin Shishi in the office?"

Si Shaoheng's face finally fell: "Cheng Ruoan!"

I can tolerate being slandered for cheating.

half an hour!

Half an hour?

This is a personal attack, defamation, and insult!

Cheng Ruoan's hand trembled slightly when he yelled at her, and she almost pulled the trigger.

Si Shaoheng wasn't scared by her; she herself was so frightened that she let out a scream and dropped the pistol, which she then threw back into her spatial dimension.

Si Shaoheng covered his face: "The space electronic butler fixed a bug. To produce something that's impossible to create in the current plane, you'll lose reputation points..."

The implication was that he had spent reputation points to take out the pistol.

Cheng Ruoan: !!

She instantly felt that she wasn't cured yet, and lay down straight down again.

"Si Shaoheng, you owe me reputation points!"

"I'll pay you back. But Cheng Ruoan, you're not allowed to read any more novels in the future. You're not allowed to read any domineering CEO novels or domineering prince novels anymore."

Cheng Ruoan looked at him suspiciously: "What do you mean?"

"You've been corrupted by the male and female protagonists in the book, acting like you don't have a mouth." Si Shaoheng glanced at her and snorted, "Since you had doubts back then, why didn't you just ask me if it was a misunderstanding?"

How do you know what we talked about during that half hour in the office?

"But you didn't say it yourself!"

"How do I know you've been to the top floor of the building and what you saw if you don't ask me how I know you've seen it?!"

Cheng Ruoan gave in, "Fine, I won't admit I didn't have a mouth. Now you explain."

"It's not as sordid as you think. She came to me in a manipulative way, telling me that she wouldn't try to take me from you, and that no matter how much the Li family tries to coerce you, she would definitely help you and not be pressured by them."

Cheng Ruoan believed it.

What Si Shaoheng said was just too true!

Lin Shishi is that kind of person!

"Heh, she's a master actress. It's a wonder you didn't fall for it. So why did she come out with a rosy complexion and looking so refreshed?" Cheng Ruoan looked at him with a mocking gaze.

Si Shaoheng: "I believe that if you heard the notification sound of '100 million yuan has been deposited into Alipay,' you would also have a rosy complexion and feel refreshed."

Cheng Ruoan was stunned. "You gave her a hundred million?! Why! Why not! Why didn't you give me one?!"

Si Shaoheng finally couldn't hold back and poked Cheng Ruoan's forehead: "I didn't give you 100 million? Don't you have any conscience? I put 400 million into the Ruoan Foundation as initial capital for you, and you're saying I didn't give it to you?!"

"Furthermore, do you know how much this villa I gave you is worth since you insisted on getting a divorce? The AI ​​butler system installed in the villa alone is worth over 10 billion yuan worth of shares in Weihua Technology!"

"Because it is a super-intelligent AI that is 50 years ahead of the world's AI technology and has not yet been listed on the market."

Cheng Ruoan was completely stunned, staring blankly at Si Shaoheng, her brows slightly furrowed, looking utterly bewildered.

"Why……"
